Hi,
I posted a while ago that I was getting a male guniea pig to bond with my female and asked for advice.
Anyway, we ending up getting another female (from a rescue center) as the child who had the male wanted to keep him.
The 2 female get on well and play out together but live in seperate hutches.
The child then decided to get rid of the male guniea pig so now we have 3. We had him neatured and now its time to get all 3 together (bought a 5ft double hutch for them to live in - indoors).
The male runs from one female to another trying to mate and of course the 2 girls are not happy about this and try and run away.
We put up with the squels for a short time then seperate the male. What I would like to know is if this is what normally happens and if if will calm down. Should we continue and leave it longer or continue with the short burst?
Any help would be great!
Thanks
